E3 2015: Watch The First Footage From ‘Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5’

Briefly: I was a big fan of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series until it got awful. There’s no sports game, singular or series, that I’ve spent more hours with, but after the first Tony Hawk’s Underground, the series quickly turned from stellar to abysmal. Even Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD was disappointing, bringing over beloved stages, but leaving behind the classic physics and incredible soundtrack.

Tony is aware of the series’ missteps, and is looking to fix them with the series next game. Hawk revealed the first footage from the game on Youtube’s live E3 coverage, and it looks old-school, and promising as hell.

I couldn’t be more excited (and I hope they don’t let me down). Take a look at the footage below, and let us know what you think! THPS5 doesn’t have a release date at this time, but it will be available for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, and PS4.
